Should I use millers cvl turbo every tank?
Kinda new to the subaru turbo world and i have to use an octane booster with my scooby due to mods, with cvl turbo and 40 liters of bp ultimate i get very little activity from knock link and no det, but previous owner said to use 2 tanks with octane booster and one clear run, he didnt use cvl turbo though, was some stuff from the states... on a clear run there is a lot more activity from knock link and now and again under heavy boost it dets... what ya all think???

if you are loaded then yes, use it every tank full!
if not get hold of some NF and run that at 2 ml per ltr, it will work just as well and save you money :) |
Can get it for 5 quid a bottle... Just heard that it can cause sticky injectors using it every time... Am lookin into the nf stuff too, but seems hard to get over here... Northern Ireland.
|
£5 a bottle, thats very cheap!!!
who told you it can cause sticky injectors? never heard that before! |
Previous owner, but then he wasnt using cvl turbo it was some stuff from the states but he seemed to think that cvl would cause it too... doubt it meself... think i will use it every tank and have no knock ;) till i can sourse some nf ;)

I read about cvl turbo it treats 20liters of fuel so if 60litre tank three bottles
|
Yea 4 octane (40 points) per 20 liters of fuel, my scoob seems to like 99 ron so 1 bottle per 40 liters super plus works wonders and knock link loves it lol
|
I use optimax and millers octane booster in my 05jdm sti till i get it remaped for optimax and octane booster i bottle for 50litres .I would of thought you would need 3bottles per tank 1 bottle of cvl for 20litres of fuel.I use the octane booster every time i fill up with fuel
|
what octane booster u using?
|
Millers octane plus
|
Your best bet is to stop using BP Ultimate as it's piss poor in comparison to Optimax, or pretty much every other 97+RON fuel.
Optimax with a single cheap bottle of Millers Octane Plus should work better than your current combo. Even better would be to get the mapping sorted so you don't need to run octane booster. Paul |
I am getting mine ie 05jdm sti remapped for uk fuel .Just running the optimax with millers octane booster and just taking it easy .Then next year go down and see Andy f for remap.He did my my2000 uk turbo with mods

Paul Just looked it up on the millers site, your not suppose to use CVL turbo with cats by the looks though, it says occasional use. Tony |
